typical shift schedules?

Hi, I've mostly seen 3 12's in hospitals. Although, I have seen 5 8's. When I did home care, it was 5 8's. I forgot how much I hated working 5 days a week though (even though it was days and very few weekends or holidays). Give me 3 12's any day instead. Usually I see 7p-7a or 7a-7p.

I have seen mostly 12 hour shifts while in clinicals. Usually 7 to 7 as well.

Andrea,

I live in Dearborn Heights as well.

I have seen the usual 7a-7p and 7p-7a 12 hour shifts and as well 5 8 hour shfits. Days 7a-3p, pm 3p-11p, then 11p-7a.

Also Oakwood has some crazy shfits. I can't remember all those that they have, but I have worked there 3p-3a, 3a-3p, 7p-7a, 7a-7p, days 7a-3p, pm 3p-11p.

As a new nurse probably midnights. However they hire sometimes on days when current staff has been offered days and no one wants it. I wouldn't expect to be hired on days anywhere. Most are hired on the off shift.

I have also seen advertisements that Providence has 10 hour shifts. I don't know how that would work.

I currently do the 3 12 hour shifts. I hated 5 days a week.

I work 3 12s a week but I back/front load do I work 6 days in a row then have 8 off, I pouch upa few 8 hr shifts at a nursing home for fun money
